From: Anniek Akerboom, Amsterdam, the netherlands
Dear colleagues,
The new WHO Global Leprosy Strategy 2021-2030, entitled 'Towards zero leprosy', was released on April 15th. The document presents the basic direction, goals, challenges and strategic pillars for the next ten years at a global level. ILEP's response to the Global Leprosy Strategy: "National NTD and leprosy programmes are urged to adopt it and to adapt its strategic pillars to their country context."
Below you will find the list with new publications on leprosy and interesting events, this time including online courses. Feel free to contact me to receive full-text versions if these cannot be found through the Infolep portal. Also, I would be happy to assist you with literature searches.
Warm regards,
Anniek Akerboom
